Tour description

This group tour is the only one in our travel list where we offer to make a part of the most beautiful route in the mountains of Kyrgyzstan not on foot, but on horseback. You will take a 3-day horse riding trip to Sary-Chelek lake, enjoy all the beauties of the Tian Shan reserve area and at the same time you will not get tired, but, on the contrary, replenish your strength and energy, in particular, through interaction with gentle horses.

In the second part of the tour, you will get acquainted with the cultural attractions of the Fergana Valley and go sightseeing in its ancient cities: Osh, Margilan, Rishtan and Kokand. Thus, the tour unites two different types of vacation activities and two countries – Kyrgyzstan and Uzbekistan. The trip starts in Osh and ends in Tashkent.
